The rucksack's body is made of a strong leather, unfortunately I have to return it because it does not hold all the stuff that I carry with me. It does not look good when it is too full. I hope to one day get the bigger rucksack.
I have this packback. It is very cute but the straps always have strings coming off. I have to trim the straps everytime I use it. It's a pain. If I don't it looks quite cheap.
I have four of these rucksacks that I use year round (I change them seasonally). I've had them for 5+ years and they're still going strong. I saw the other feedback about the straps and have not experienced the same problems at all (and I put a lot into these bags!). I keep them looking spiffy by applying a leather cleaner once per year - absolutely my favorite bags!!!
I was very unhappy with this purse. Love the fabric. Straps are unraveling and it dumps out too easy. Hard to close pull string and snap is impossible. Very bad, design
